Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 1 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 1 | I have a 1955 Chevrolet pickup i am restoring and i have a question that is probably simple to answer. In my truck i have put a 350 and a 700R4 overdrive automatic combo and right now i dont have the right type of shifter in it. I have bought a B&M Console Megashifter with the cable to go to the transmission. One problem, when i tried to shift it, all the cable would do was torque and would not shift. do i need a different hook up to my transmission or what?

What I mean is, make sure that the tranny is in park, the shifter is in park, and then tighten down the cable. It does help to have the cable tied off in a few places, and keep sharp bends to a minimum.
If you still have problems, just call B&M tech, I have found them very helpful.
